Q: I heard someone make a joke the other day about George Stephanopoulos and Bill Clinton. Did they work together before?
They sure did. Indeed, when George Stephanopoulos first joined ABC's current-affairs show "This Week" as an analyst (he's now the host), it was due in part to his status as a political insider, having served as communications director for then-governor Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign.
He served in the Clinton administration for a while but left at the end of his first term.
Around the 'Globe': Ricky Gervais returns as host for the 73rd Annual Golden Globes
Ricky Gervais hosts the 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards
With the New Year in full swing, it's time to kick the major awards season into high gear as well, and it starts at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in California. A familiar face is back to host, and the best and brightest of television and film are gathered for the 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards, airing Sunday, Jan. 10, on NBC.
Q: What did the other guys from "The Black Adder" do afterwards?
I'm going to assume by "the other guys" you mean Tony Robinson and Tim McInnerny, who the played faithful, albeit somewhat dim, manservants, Baldrick and Percy. Rowan Atkinson, as the Black Adder himself, was of course the star, but he's been pretty visible since.
Robinson, McInnerny and Atkinson are the only actors to feature in all four seasons (a number of other major stars, such as Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie, appeared for a season or two).
Q: Will "If Loving You is Wrong" on OWN be coming back? If so, when?
Even the tireless Tyler Perry needs a break now and again. And so do his shows. "If Loving You Is Wrong" is on a break, but it's definitely coming back.
The mid-season finale of the show's second season aired at the beginning of December. It was the 11th episode of the season, meaning it was the true halfway point, since OWN (the Oprah Winfrey Network) has committed to a 22-episode season. The last 11 episodes are scheduled to air starting in March.

Late Laughs for the week of January 3 - 9, 2016
